2. CHAPTER -2
GENERAL LAYOUT & BASIC IDEA:-
The Steam turbine converts thermal energy of steam into mechanical energy and
Generator converts this mechanical energy to Electrical energy. The operation of
steam turbine generator involves the expansion of steam through numerous stages in
turbine causing turbine rotor to rotate which in turn rotate Generator rotor. The
Generator rotor is manetised and its rotation generates the electric power in the
Generator Stator.
2.1 Basics of Steam Plant Cycle:
The Basics of Steam Plant is Rankine Cycle: See Plant Over view
(i) In Boiler heat addition takes place it is represented by Line 1-1’
( Sensible heat) & 1’-2 (Latent heat of water)
(ii) This Steam expands in turbine & causing turbine to rotate ,
(iii) this expansion is isentropic as entropy remain constant it is represented by

Fig. no. 2.1 Rankine Cycle

3. Power Station may be divided into four main circuits :
3
 Fuel and Ash Circuit.
 Air and Gas Circuit.
 Feed water and Steam Circuit.
 Cooling Water Circuit.
2.1.1 Fuel & Ash Circuit:-
Fuel from the storage is fed to the boiler through fuel handling device. The fuel used
in KSTPP is coal, which on combustion in the boiler produced the ash. This ash is
collected at the back of the boiler and removed to ash storage tank through ash
disposal equipment
2.1.2 Air and Gas Circuit:-
Air from the atmosphere is supplied to the combustion chamber of Boiler through the
action of forced draft fan and induced draft fan. The flue gas are first pass around the
boiler tubes and super heated tubes in the furnace, next through dust collector (ESP)
& then economizer. Finally, they are exhausted to the atmosphere through fans.
2.1.3 Feed Water and Steam Circuit:-
The condensate leaving the condenser is first heated in low pressure (LP) heaters
through extracted steam from the lower pressure extraction of the turbine. Then its
goes to deaerator where extra air and non-condensable gases are removed. From
deaerator it goes to boiler feed pump which increases the pressure of the water. From
the BFP it passes through the high pressure heaters. A small part of water and steam
is lost while passing through different components therefore water is added in hot
well. This water is called the make up water. Thereafter, feed water enters into the
boiler drum through economizer. In boiler tubes water circulates because of density
difference in lower and higher temperature section of the boiler. The wet steam passes
through superheater. From superheated it goes into the HP turbine after expanding in
the HP turbine. The low pressure steam called the cold reheat steam (CRH) goes to
the reheater (boiler). From reheater it goes to IP turbine and then to the LP turbine
and then exhausted through the condenser into hot well.

4. 2.1.4 Cooling Water Circuit:-
A large quantity of cooling water is required to condense the steam in condenser and
maintaining low pressure in it. The water is drawn from reservoir and after use it is
drained into the river

isolated from each other and hanging with the top roof of field. The supply to these
electrodes is fed through support insulators. The collecting electrodes are of the shape
of flat plates. By several similar plates while the emitting electrodes are of the shape
of spring. The ash depositing on these electrode is rapped down by separate rapping
mechanism happens at the bottom of the field. From these hoppers ash is evacuated
by ash handling system and dispose to the disposal area. The rapping system is
automatically controlled with the help of the programmable metal controller, located
in the ESP auxiliaries control panels.

15. CHAPTER -6
15
BOILER:-
A boiler (or steam generator) is a closed vessel in which water, under pressure is
converted into steam. It is one of the major components of a thermal power plant. A
boiler is always designed to absorb maximum amount of heat released in process of
combustion. This is transferred to the boiler by all the three modes of heat transfer i.e.
conduction, convection and radiation.
6.1 Water tube boiler:-
In this type of boiler water flows inside the tubes and hot gases flow outside the
tubes. These tubes are interconnected to common water channels and to steam outlet.
In KSTPP, Natural circulation, tangentially fired, over hanged type, Water tube
boilers are used. Oil burners are provided between coal burners for initial start up and
flame stabilization. Firstly, light oil (diesel oil) is sprayed for initialization then heavy
oil (high speed diesel oil) is used for stabilization of flame. Pulverized coal is directly
fed from the coal mills to the burners at the four corners of the furnace through coal
pipes with the help of heated air coming from PA fan. Four nos. of ball mills of
34MT/hr. capacity each have been installed for each boiler. The pressure inside boiler
is -ive so as to minimized the pollution and looses & to prevent the accidents outside
the boiler.

16. Fig. no. 6.1 Boiler
For ensuring safe operation of boilers, furnace safe guard supervisory system (FSSS)
has been installed. This equipment systematically feed fuel to furnace as per load
requirement flame scanners installed to scan the flame conditions and in case of
unsafe working conditions trip the boiler and consequently the turbine. Turbine -
boiler interlocks safe guarding the boiler against possibility of furnace explosion
owing to flame failure.
16

17. 17
6.2 Furnace:-
Furnace is primary part of the boiler where the chemical energy available in the fuel is
converted into thermal energy by combustion.,
Fig. no. 6.2 Furnance
6.3 WATER:-
The source of water for power station is reservoir formed by Kota Barrage on the
Chambal River. In case of large capacity plants huge quantities of coal and water is
required.

18. 18
6.4 PULVERISED FUEL SYSTEM:-
The boiler fuel firing system is tangentially firing system in which the fuel is
introduced from wind nozzle located in the four corners inside the boiler.
The crushed coal from the coal crusher is transferred into the unit coalbunkers where
the coal is stored for feeding into pulverizing mill through rotary feeder
Fig. no. 6.3 Pulverised Fuel System
6.4.1 Fuel Oil System:-
The functional requirement of the fuel burning system is to supply a controllable and
uninterrupted flammable furnace input of fuel and air and to continuously ignite and
burn the fuel as rapidly as it is introduced into the furnace. The Fuel air (secondary
air) provided FD fan, surrounds the fuel nozzles. Dampers are provided so that
quantity of air can be controlled . Coal burners distribute the fuel and air evenly in the
furnace. Ignition takes place when the flammable furnace input is heated above the
ignition temperature..
6.5 Boiler Drum:-
The drum is a pressure vessel. Its function is to separate water and steam from the
mixture (of steam & water) generated in the furnace walls. It provides water storage
for preventing the saturation of tubes. It is made up of two halves of carbon steel
plates.

19. Fig. no. 6.4 Boiler Drum
Boiler drum is located at a height of 53m from ground.The drum form the part of
boiler circulating system i.e. movement of fluid from the drum to the combustion
zone and back to boiler drum. Feed water is supplied to the drum from the economizer
through feed nozzles. Water from the drum goes to water walls through six
downcomers.
19
6.6 Draft System:-
The combustion process in a furnace can take place only when it receives a steady
flow of air and has the combustion gases continuously removed. Theoretically
balanced draft means keeping furnace pressure equal to atmospheric pressure, but in
practice the furnace is kept slightly below atmospheric pressure. It ensures that there
is no egress of air or hot gas and ash into boiler house.
Primary air fan (P.A. fan) or Exhauster fan-
Pulverized coal is directly fed from coal mills to the burners at the four corners of the
furnace through coal pipes with the help of heated air coming from PA fan. Secondly,
this fan also dries the coal. Usually sized for 1500 RPM due to high pressure.

20. 20
Forced draught fan (F.D. fan):-
The combustion process in the furnace can take place only when it receives a steady
flow of air. This air is supplied by FD fan. Thus FD fan takes air from atmosphere at
ambient temperature & so provides additional draught. Its speed varies from 600-1500
RPM.
Induced draught fan (I.D. fan):-
The flue gases coming out of the boiler are passed to the ESP & then dust free gases
are discharged up by the chimney to the atmosphere through the ID fan.
Scanner Air Fan:-
Used to provide necessary cooling air to the flame scanners. Two air fans are usually
provided. One will run and other will remain as stand by. When F.D. fans trip the
scanner air fan will draw air from atmosphere through emergency damper. Typical
speed 3000 RPM.
6.7 Economizer:-
The flue gases coming out of the boiler carry lot of heat. An economiser extracts a
part of this heat from the flue gases and uses it for heating the feed water before it
enters into the steam drum. The use of economiser results in saving fuel consumption
and higher boiler efficiency but needs extra investment. In an economizer, a large
number of small diameter thin walled tubes are placed between two headers. Feed
water enters the tubes through the other. The flue gases flow outside the tubes
.

21. Fig.. No. 6.5 Economizer
21
Air preheaters:-
Air preheaters are employed to recover the heat from the flue gases leaving the
economiser and are used to heat the incoming air for combustion. This raises the
temperature of the furnace gases, improves combustion rates and efficiency and
lowers the stack (chimney) temperature, thus improving the overall efficiency of the
boiler.
Fig. no. 6.6 Air preheaters
Superheater:-
Superheated steam is that steam, which contains more heat than the saturated steam at
the same pressure i.e. it, has been heated above the temperature corresponding to its
pressure. This additional heat provides more energy to the turbine and thus the

22. electrical power output is more.The steam is superheated to the highest economical
temperature increase the efficiency–
22
Reheater:-
Reheaters are provided to raise the temperature of the steam from which part of
energy has already been extracted by HP turbine. This is done so that the steam
remains dry as far as possible through the last stage of the turbine.. From economizer
the water enters the drum and thus joins the circulation system through down covering
water wall tubes. In water wall tubes a part of the water is converted to steam due to
boiler and the mixture flows back to the drum. In the drum, the steam is separated out
through the steam separators and passed to the super heater. After the super heater
when the steam temperature becomes high and pressure upto 150 Kg./cm3 steam is
allowed to enter the turbine to convert potential energy to kinetic energy.
Soot Blower:-
The boiler tubes are cleaned with the help of steam by the process called soot
blowing.

CONCLUSION
The first phase of practical training has proved to be quiet fruitful. It provided an
opportunity for encounter with such huge machines like wagon tippler .110 MW &
210 MW turbines and generators.
The architecture of the power plant the way various units are linked and the way
working of whole plant is controlled make the student realize that engineering is not
just learning the structured description and working of various machines, but the
greater part is of planning proper management.
It also provides an opportunities to lean low technology used at proper place and time
can cave a lot of labour e.g. wagon Tripler (CHP).But there are few factors that
require special mention. Training is not carried out into its tree sprit. It is
recommended that there should be some project specially meant for students where
presence of authorities should be ensured. There should be strict monitoring of the
performance of students and system of grading be improved on the basis of work
done.
However training has proved to be quite fruitful. It has allowed an opportunity to get
an exposure of the practical implementation to theoretical fundamentals.
